We start our NFL Week 10 recap with a retrospective look at this past weekend's action, which includes plenty of drama! Just like that we saw on NFL Week 9 last weekend too!
The Chiefs remained unbeaten, but only just and only thanks to a remarkable final play of the game against the Denver Broncos. Buffalo, Baltimore and Pittsburgh picked up very important wins in the AFC.
In the NFC, the Lions managed to overcome a rare off-day for QB Jared Goff to earn a win over the Houston Texans and could that be enough to take them top of the Power Rankings in our NFL Week 10 recap?
The Eagles dominated the Cowboys, while the Vikings earned a narrow win, despite not scoring a touchdown and the Cardinals were hugely impressive in their victory over New York Jets.

Next in our NFL Week 10 recap, we take a closer look at some of the crunch games that took place this week, starting with a Thursday night classic!
The Ravens and Bengals combined for 859 yards of offense and ten touchdowns in an amazing game which saw a dramatic conclusion as the Bengals tried to win the game, rather than force overtime.
A relatively sedate first half saw the Bengals lead 14-7 at the break. But the game exploded in the third quarter. Jamr Chase scored three touchdowns in the second half for the Bengals, but the Ravens scored four themselves, including an 84-yard pass to Tylan Wallace.
However with 0.38 left on the clock, QB Joe Burrow found Ja'Marr Chase for a 5-yard pass to make the score 35-34 in favour of the Ravens. The Bengals elected to go for two, rather than score the point to force overtime, but the 2-point attempt failed to hand the Ravens a dramatic win.
The Kansas City Chiefs remain unbeaten and moved to 9-0 on the season, but they will seldom have a more dramatic victory than they achieved against the Broncos on Sunday. Rookie QB Bo Nix had a very solid game for Denver, 22/30 for 215 yards and 2 TDs a great return for the youngster.
Denver led 14-13 at the half but could not score again as the Chiefs defence started to bite back in the second half. The Chiefs though scored two field goals to lead 16-14, but Denver drove downfield late in the game to put themselves in field goal position. However, Mike Pennel blocked Will Lutz chipshot kick to hand the Chiefs a dramatic win.
Two of the more surprising contenders this season battled out a brilliant and hard-fought game in Washington DC, but in the end it was QB Russell Wilson who led the Steelers to a one-point victory thanks to a late touchdown to recently acquired WR Mike Williams.
In an exciting game that went back and forth throughout, the Steelers defence holding the Commanders to two field goals in the second and third quarter, was the difference and means that they are now the top dog in a tough AFC North.
Whisper it quietly, but the Arizona Cardinals may just be the best team in the NFC West at the moment. Another fantastic display by QB Kyler Murray, who had 22/24 for 266 yards and a touchdown, as well as rushing for a touchdown, laid the foundation for this statement win over the hapless New York Jets.
The Jets defensive display was embarrassing at times, with missed tackles and half-hearted attempts to stop the Cardinals putting the Jets behind the 8-ball early on. They never recovered. TE Trey McBride had a great game for the Cards with four receptions for 71 yards.
It doesn't get much worse for Cowboys fans: QB Dak Prescott is likely out for the rest of the season and now crushed by a hated divisional rival. A litany of mistakes, poor play and awful play calling against a strong Eagles team saw Cowboys fans booing their own team at points.
QB Jalen Hurts rushed for a couple of touchdowns for the Eagles who cruised to victory without ever needing to get into top gear. A much tougher test against Washington lies in store this week for Philly in another key divisional matchup.
A few weeks back Jared Goff had a perfect night at QB. Against the Texans, he had five interceptions, yet still managed to steer his team to victory. It was a miserable first half for the Lions, who went in at the interval 23-7 down to the Texans.
However, this Lions team never knows when it is beat. RB David Montgomery reduced the deficit to ten and WR Amon Ra St Brown cut it to three in the fourth quarter. Then up stepped Jake Bates to score two field goals in the last five minutes and 1 second, the last as time expired, to drag the Lions to a sensational comeback win.
Outlined below are the full list of fixtures for Gameday 11 in the NFL. There are no teams on a bye week this week, which means a full slate of games involving all 32-teams.
Highlights include the Chiefs at the Bills in a potential AFC Championship decider and Thursday's huge NFC East clash between the Eagles and Commanders.
That completes our NFL Week 10 recap! Check back next week when we take a look at how NFL Matchday 11 went and how those results affect the next set of Power Rankings!
